The warmth of Summer approaches us here in California as it does in many places on this side of the globe. As we gear up for outdoor activities and finding some ease in the sunnier weather, we also know that those writing projects and goals won’t move themselves. With a handful of new classes and some exciting one-day free seminars you can choose to dip your toes into accomplishing some writing goals this season, or dive all the way in the pool to swim around in a creative swirl.
